REAR VIEW MIRROR BLURRING PROBLEM

[SROLD]

I JUST DROVE MY NEW GT350 FROM WISCONSIN TO PHOENIX AND HAD AN OVERALL TREMENDOUS TRIP EXCEPT FOR ONE ANNOYING PROBLEM. THE REAR VIEW MIRROR HAS A SMALL VIBRATION AT SPEED EVEN ON RELATIVELY SMOOTH INTERSTATE HIGHWAYS. A QUICK GLANCE AT IT AND IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE WHAT VEHICLE IS BEHIND IN THE MIRROR BECAUSE OF THE BLURRING. PUTTING MY HAND ON THE MIRROR DOES STOP IT BUT I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DO THIS. SCREW HOLDING IT TO THE WINDSHIELD WAS TIGHTENED BUT DID NOT STOP IT. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS PROBLEM...IF SO...HOW SOLVED OR IS IT A WARRANTY PROBLEM?

OUTSIDE MIRRORS DO NOT VIBRATE AND BLUR.

That is most likely vibration from the flat plane crank . . . some of us have it and some of us don't. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

I agree. It's just engine vibration shaking the mirror.

85 MPH AT 2300 RPM IN 6TH GEAR ON THE FREEWAY, EVEN WITH THE FLAT PLANE CRANK, SHOULD NOT CAUSE A NEW $60K PLUS VEHICLE THAT IS VERY SMOOTH IN NORMAL SUSPENSION MODE TO HAVE A REAR VIEW MIRROR VIBRATION BLURRING PROBLEM. AT LEAST THAT'S MY OPINION AFTER A 2000 MILE TRIP.

My GT did it too. I personally don't care.

I agree with your statement, but, please TURN OFF YOUR CAP LOCK!

Dude....caps lock is abusive. Also...this is a street going race car....if mine does it...I'll just remove the mirror.

My Scion IQ does it but only when or whenever it reaches any speed limit.
Bad IQ baaaad!!!

PS
my voodoo shakes the crap out of the rear view mirror right when i hit that stupid red button...yahoooooooooooo

A true classic. It must be an age thing. Sometimes I say that to people and I just get blank stares back.
